When couples adopt recession behaviors without understanding economic reality

My spouse and I have been rationing groceries and canceling subscriptions because we think that's what you're supposed to do in a recession, but we're not sure if our response fits the actual economic situation or if we're just acting out what we think recession behavior looks like. We realize we're performing recession anxiety rather than responding to our actual circumstances.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

Two people are performing culturally expected recession responses without clear connection to their actual economic situation.
